From Down in Front at FriendsInYourHead.com:
Hey guys, Teague here with the third scary movie of October. Prepare your spine for curving and the conclusion of your intestines for high speed rupture; our movie this week is The Fly.
All hands on are deck for this creepy-ass horror show, and for a creature feature, resident old school FXer Trey is less than impressed. Why, you ask? How could it be? Listen to find out. Because I forgot. I think he’s just a curmudgeon. Or kind of a dick.
Michael, how do you feel about Jeff Goldblum? … I’m a fan, but I’m not sure how much of it is ironic.— Down in Front,

We had video taps even in ’85. You could have shot directly out of the movie camera. … But how did you make movies without electricity? Well, we just rubbed two sticks together until Jeff Goldblum caught fire.— Down in Front,

I love that moment when the baboon jumps into the shirtless arms of Jeff Goldblum. It is a sexy moment. It’s hot, baby. In other ’80s movies, this would be a buddy comedy.— Down in Front,

This dates me, but that relates to … a book I read growing up that changed my understanding of … what it meant to be human, which was the issue of Goosebumps where the kid became a bee. [laughter]— Down in Front,

The Fly II is about the son, who I can’t remember what his name is. … Buzz. Was it Buzz? [laughter] Ya got me. High five.— Down in Front,

I love how the computer just takes— The computer’s like ‘Okee dokee!’ … ‘I did it!’ ‘That was a rough one, but I think I pulled it off. What do you think?’— Down in Front,
